Here’s some links. The first two links are the 30th anniversary saws that are on sale (new black color scheme). The first link is the G0555LANV which is one of many 14” – 555 series (family) of saws and all get rave reviews. I own the 14” G0555P and have no issues. I can’t comment about experience with any other Grizzly band saw, but I’m sure others will post about their bigger models. As mentioned above sometimes bigger is better. It all depends on what your needs and budget will allow. These three are just examples of what is offered. Good luck in your decision

Dick,I agree with the sentiment of going 17in or larger. I have a 14in (Rikon) but often find myself wanting a larger BS. Much of the reasoning for me, is the ability to use a full 1in blade for resawing. Resawing roughcut 8/4 and 12/4 lumber has more than paid for my BS in less than 2yr of operation, and I am a slow, small, hobby user at that.

I have the 14” Polar Bear Grizzly G0555P14” G0555P, with the riser, just thought the white color was cool – it has done everything I needed it to do. I built a table for it for cutting bowl blanks, and with the riser, I can resaw much bigger pieces. I don’t think you can go wrong with it… just get good blades!
